UFC Houston: What Walkout Songs Do Sean Strickland And Anthony Hernandez Use?
Fighter walkouts are the pulse of any big fight card, electrifying the arena as entrance songs hit and the crowd roars. Every step toward the Octagon builds the tension and makes the moment feel bigger.
Here’s a look at the walkout songs several fighters on the UFC Houston card have used in their past appearances.
Sean Strickland enters the fight with a 16-7 UFC record and is returning from a year-long layoff after falling short in his bid to reclaim the middleweight title, suffering a lopsided unanimous decision loss to then-champion Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 312 in February 2025.
When it comes to walkout music, Strickland sticks to what works. The former UFC middleweight champion has long leaned into his all-American persona, pairing his fiery style with an entrance that fits it perfectly. He makes the walk to the Octagon to “When Johnny Comes Marching Home” (Metal Version) by Megaraptor.
Meanwhile, Anthony Hernandez, who holds a 9-2 record inside the Octagon, was last in action at UFC Vegas 109 in August 2025, where he earned a fourth-round submission win over Roman Dolidze, pushing his current winning streak to eight fights.
While his walkout music has varied over the years, “Fluffy” has often favored the Spanish classic “Por ti volaré” by Andrea Bocelli, a nod to his Mexican heritage.
Hernandez has also made the walk to “Bladadah” by Mozzy in one of his previous appearances.
